1. For Your Safety
Read these simple guidelines before using your
phone. Failure to comply with these guidelines
may be dangerous or illegal.
For more detailed safety information, see
“Important Safety Information” on page 81.
Road Safety Comes First
Don’t use a hand-held phone while driving; park
the vehicle first.
Switch Off In Hospitals
Switch off your phone when near medical
equipment. Follow any regulations or rules in
force.
Switch Off On Aircraft
Mobile phones can cause interference.
Using them on aircraft is illegal.
Switch Off When Refueling
Do not use the phone at a refueling point.
Do not use near fuels or chemicals.

progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any
regulations or rules in force.
Interference
All mobile phones may get interference which
could affect performance.
Use Sensibly
Use only in the normal position (to ear).
Avoid unnecessary contact with the antenna
when phone is on.
2
Qualified Service
Only qualified service personnel may install or
repair cellular phone equipment. Use only
approved accessories and batteries.
FCC/Industry Canada Notice
A cellular phone may cause TV or radio interference
(e.g. when using a phone in close proximity to electronic re-
ceiving equipment). The FCC/Industry Canada can require
you to stop using your cellular phone if such interference
cannot be eliminated. If you require assistance, please
contact your local service facility.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the condition that this device does
not cause harmful interference.
Using this Guide
The cellular phone described in this guide is approved for
use in AMPS and/or NAMPS networks.
A number of features included in this guide are called
Network Services. They are special services provided by
cellular service providers. Before you can take advantage
of any of these Network Services, you must subscribe to
the service(s) from your home service provider and obtain
instructions for their use.

type
of system the phone will
use when it is roaming (see “Carrier Selection
(Menu 5 1 1)” on page 45.) Blank if Home-only
system is selected, or the phone is using a
“preferred” network.
The phone is using the Home system.
Flashes if the phone is using a Home
type

and bar indicate the cellular signal strength of the
location where you are using your phone.
and bar indicate the battery charge level. When the
battery is fully charged, the whole bar is displayed.
4
Signal Strength Indication
A cellular phone sends and receives radio signals. As with
all radio equipment, the quality of radio reception depends
on the strength of the radio signal in the area where you
are operating your phone.
The strength of the cellular signal is shown by
the vertical bar on the left-hand side of the dis-
play. The higher the bar, the stronger the signal
at your present location.
When
NO SERVICE
is displayed, the phone is
either outside of the cellular service area or re-
stricted from entering service, and calls cannot
be made or received.
If the signal is poor and you are using the phone in a
building, you may get better reception near a window.
5
3. Battery Information
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. Use
only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and
recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by
the manufacturer. See “Important Battery Information” on
page 10.
See your cellular service provider or dealer for the battery
options available for your phone.
Installing the Battery
Removing the Battery
Note: Switch off the
phone’s power before
removing the battery!
6
Charging the Battery
Plug the charger into a wall outlet and connect the charger
to the bottom of your phone.
When charging starts, the battery
segments scroll and the phone
beeps once.
You can use the phone during charg-
ing, but charging will be reduced for
the duration of the call.
Note: In a call, charging will stop completely if you are
using the Standard Travel Charger (ACP-7U).
After the segments of the battery indicator stop
scrolling and all segments are displayed, the
battery is fully charged. Disconnect the charger
from the power outlet and phone.
If the battery is too hot or cold, the charging may
be interrupted until the battery reaches its normal
operating temperature.
Note: With a new, completely discharged battery, the
phone may take up to 45 minutes to show that charging
is in progress.

Talk and Standby Times
Battery operation times depend greatly on how you use the
batteries, as well as on the coverage of the network and
network parameters set by the cellular service provider.
Discharging the Battery
A battery lasts longer and performs better if you fully
discharge it from time to time. To discharge the battery,
leave your phone switched on until the battery is drained
and the phone turns itself off. Then wait for 30 minutes
before connecting to a charging source. (See “Deep
Discharge” on page 9.)
Note: Do not discharge the battery by any other means.

Battery Low Warning
You get this message and a warning
tone when the battery charge is low
and only a few minutes of talk time
remain.
The repetition rate of the battery-low
warnings depends on the remaining battery capacity and
the battery condition. The warnings are more frequent
when you’re in a call.
Note: If you’ve selected the Vibra Only or Silent Ringing
Option, you won’t hear any warning tones. See “Ringing
Options (Menu 3 1)” on page 37.
When the battery charge is too low for the phone to work,
the phone displays
RECHARGE BATTERY
, then beeps,
then shuts itself off.
Charge the battery as described earlier in this section.
Deep Discharge
If you regularly just ‘top up’ the charge in your battery
without ever allowing it to fully discharge first, its life will be
shortened. In order to get the maximum life from your
battery you should allow it to discharge completely about
once a month.
To discharge the battery completely:
1
Leave the phone switched on until
RECHARGE
BATTERY
appears, then let the phone switch off
automatically.
2
Leave the phone alone for about 30 minutes (and
do
not
connect a charger within this time) after it
switches itself off.
10
During this 30 minutes, the phone is in ‘Deep
Discharge’ mode. The way to ‘wake up’ the phone is
to connect it to a charger.
3
Fully charge the battery after Deep Discharge.
The phone may remind you to discharge the battery, by
presenting a series of battery-advice messages. Press
!
or OK to page through the information, or press CLR to
clear the messages.
Important Battery Information
Note that a new battery’s full performance is achieved
only after two or three complete charge and discharge
cycles!
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds
of times but it will eventually wear out. When the
operating time (talk time and standby time) is notice-
ably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Use only batteries approved by the phone manufac-
turer and recharge your battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the battery connected to
a charger for longer than a week, since overcharging
may shorten its life. If left unused a fully charged
battery will discharge itself over time.
(NiMH batteries only) For good operation times,
discharge the battery from time to time by leaving
your phone switched on until it turns itself off (or by
using the battery discharge facility of any approved
accessory available for your phone). Do not attempt
to discharge the battery by any other means.
11
Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your
battery to charge: allow it to cool down or warm up
first.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged
or worn out.
Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short cir-
cuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip, or
pen) causes direct connection of the + and - terminals
of the battery (metal strips on the back of the battery),
for example when you carry a spare battery in your
pocket or purse. Short circuiting the terminals may
damage the battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce
the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to
keep the battery between 59º F and 77º F (15º C and
25º C). A phone with a hot or cold battery may
temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully
charged. NiMH batteries’ performance is particularly
limited in temperatures below 14º F (-10º C). Li-Ion
batteries’ performance is particularly limited in
temperatures below 32º F (0º C).
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with any
local regulations.
12
4. The Basics
Switching On or Off
Press and hold the
PWR
key for one second.
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any
other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over
your shoulder.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: Extend your antenna
fully when in calls. As with any other radio transmitting
device, avoid unnecessary contact with the antenna when
the phone is switched on. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at
a higher power level than otherwise needed.
WARNING! Do not switch the phone on when cellular phone
use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.
Wake-up Message
When you switch your phone on, the phone displays a
wake-up message consisting of the phone number cur-
rently selected for your phone, or the name of the dealer if
this has been programmed. (If programmed, the name
takes precedence over the phone number.)
To change the wake-up message:
1
Press ABC, then enter the message. Press OK.
2
At the prompt
SAVE IN LOCATION?
, press
. Press
OK. (The wake-up message is stored in location ‘
’.)
Note: The Wake-up Message is different from the Reminder
Message you can store in your phone. See “Reminder
Message” on page 64.
13
Note: The wake-up message is specific to your currently
selected phone number.
Selecting a Network
Your phone operates on specific networks and sometimes
it must choose which system to use. This can happen, for
example, if you are roaming (i.e. you leave the area where
you have signed up for service).
If you want your phone to work only in certain types of
networks (for example, to take advantage of certain billing
agreements between systems), you can specify this using
“Carrier Selection (Menu 5 1 1)”. See page 45.
Making a Call
1
Extend the phone’s antenna fully.
2
Enter the
area code
and
phone number
, then press
SEND. If you make a mistake, press CLR to erase
digits one by one. Press and hold CLR to clear the
whole display.
A phone symbol appears on the
display. The call is connected when
the phone number disappears from
the display and
CALL
appears.
For international calls, you can enter a
‘+’ at the beginning of a number by pressing
∗∗
. Then enter
the number, then press SEND. The ‘+’ expands to the
international dialing code prefix.
NO SERVICE
appears and the phone beeps if you try to
make a call when your phone is outside the cellular service
area.
